  1. BBC News - The man who makes £100,000 watches


    well worth a look, if your interested in watches or precise engineering.

    enjoy.

    p.s. I'm about £94k away from being able to afford one of these....... Put a few pennies in the pot every night. One day.....

  2. thanks for that..i'll also pass it on to my Dad. He's an amateur horologist, and has been hand making clocks for 20 odd years...he'll love this documentary.
    Thanks again

  3. I bought my Breitling last year and got fully sucked in watching the videos of how they are made :) once in 40 year purchase though that's for sure!

  4. Phil748 word of warning, it can be addictive. I treated myself to a Breitling for my 40 th, and have added another quality watch every three years ! Trouble is they get more expensive and you can only wear one at a time :eek:
